Fall 2017
Anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions are driving climate change. The largest sources of emitted carbon dioxide are coal and fossil fuel power plants. One proposed solution to mitigate emissions is to capture carbon dioxide from fossil fuel power plants and store it underground. This is the...

Chemical modification, characterization, and application of chicken feathers as novel biosorbents
Download2013
Ullah, Aman, Khosa, Muhammad A., Wu, Jianping
The current work exclusively pertains to preparing arsenic removing biosorbents using chicken feathers (CF) as a raw material. CF consist of keratinous proteins with many functional groups, and this paper contributes to the debate on how functional groups, especially –COOH, –NH2 and –S–S–,...

Pang, Wanying, Wang, Yingnan, Jin, Zhehui
Shale/tight gas plays an increasingly important role to meet the growing global energy demand and reduce carbon emissions. Unlike conventional reservoirs, shale formations are subject to rock heterogeneity and have pore size distributions ranging from sub-1 nm to a few micrometers. Thanks to the...

Development of a hybrid wheat straw adsorption and microfiltration system for oily wastewater treatment
DownloadFall 2020
Effective, economical, and sustainable treatment technologies are highly desirable for treating oily wastewater generated from various industries as well as municipal and commercial establishments. The performance of traditional polymeric membranes is largely constrained by their high fouling...

Development of dynamic column breakthrough for multicomponent adsorption equilibrium and diffusion
DownloadFall 2022
Pressure and temperature swing adsorption processes are increasingly being designed and optimized computationally. The reliability of these predictions are highly dependent on the quality of the experimental equilibrium and kinetic data used in these simulations. Consistent experimental...
